Yo - PoGoers: Would y'all please friend my brother and sister-in-law and a good friend - they're on the friend task and need friends. nm - NiKlaus Aug 21, 06:29 34
- Tangential - i caught a Shiny Houndour last night! -- nm - Andie Aug 21, 07:06
- you need to friend people for a level of the new research, right? -- nm - decline Aug 21, 06:32 32
  - This is something I really don't like in mobile gaming. I refuse to ask friends to join a game I'm playing. - Krusty Aug 21, 07:09 2
    - No - you don't have to get new people to sign up. You have to become in game friends with other players. nm -- nm - NiKlaus Aug 21, 07:10 1
      - Ahh, that's not so bad. -- nm - Krusty Aug 21, 07:15
  - also, get ready to walk some eevee and hatch some eggs in upcoming stages apparently -- nm - ty97 Aug 21, 06:52 4
    - Yep - lots of talk of evolving an Espeon and possibly an Umbreon. nm - NiKlaus Aug 21, 06:53 3
      - Stage 4 confirmed to involve A) walk eevee 10Km and B) evolve espeon. Future stage rumored to involve umbreon. -- (edited) - ty97 Aug 21, 06:58 2
        
        Whoa, wait...that means the 10k I have logged on this Eevee won't satisfy the quest. Shit. nm - NiKlaus Aug 21, 07:08
        
        I guess that helps me decide what to evolve my shiny into. nm - NiKlaus Aug 21, 07:02
  - Yep - the 2nd stage of the Celebi Special research tasks. -- nm - NiKlaus Aug 21, 06:35 23
    - I figure people get this, but just in case: don't add the friends until after you hit stage 2 or it won't count -- nm - ty97 Aug 21, 06:47
    - I'm not there yet, but will add later today or tomorrow -- nm - decline Aug 21, 06:37 14
      - Hit stage 2 as soon as you can. There's a roadblock task in stage 2. - ty97 Aug 21, 06:45 8
        
        I just need to raid. I have very few options to do this unfortunately. -- nm - decline Aug 21, 06:47 7
        
        Hopefully you can find a Tier 1 and solo it -- nm - ty97 Aug 21, 06:47 6
        
        just snuck out of work (I blame you for what I've become) and found a tier 1. - decline Aug 21, 07:17 1
        
        See? That's the dedication we're looking for! -- nm - NiKlaus Aug 21, 07:18
        
        Again though, you don't have to even battle in it. Just go in the lobby. Use your free pass, get your task complete and then get another free pass. -- nm - NiKlaus Aug 21, 06:48 2
        
        I've read this, but my task didn't show complete until I finished the raid so couldn't confirm it myself. ALSO.... - ty97 Aug 21, 06:51 1
        
        Yeah, I didn't expect that to happen, but when I saw I didn't have to wait for the countdown, I bounced and got the task. nm - NiKlaus Aug 21, 06:52
        
        see below -- you just have to go into the lobby!! -- nm - amanda Aug 21, 06:48
      - me too, i haven't hit a Raid that i've had time to battle. -- nm - Andie Aug 21, 06:41 4
        
        that two minute lobby time kills me. -- nm - amanda Aug 21, 06:45 3
        
        I wish, if you were in private lobby, you could just say 'cut the timer and start' -- nm - ty97 Aug 21, 06:45 2
        
        seriously. -- nm - amanda Aug 21, 06:46 1
        
        Like if I'm soloing a lower level raid, I don't need/want anyone else to join me so let's just go already -- nm - ty97 Aug 21, 06:46
    - I wonder if you can unfriend and refriend people. I still haven't raided from yesterday. -- nm - amanda Aug 21, 06:36 6
      - When this rolled out yesterday folks were confirming that worked. But I figure they patch it at some point -- nm - ty97 Aug 21, 06:46 2
        
        if you do that will you get the XP awards as you level up all over again too, i wonder? -- nm* - Andie Aug 21, 06:56 1
        
        Friend status is not immediately deleted when you unfriend so if you refriend quickly will still be there. - ty97 Aug 21, 07:00
      - For what it's worth, you don't have to actually complete the raid. nm - NiKlaus Aug 21, 06:37 2
        
        oh, you just have to enter the lobby? that's good to know. -- nm - amanda Aug 21, 06:45 1
        
        Ayup...I had no idea until I tried yesterday. I, too, hate the 2 minute countdown -- nm - NiKlaus Aug 21, 06:50

RE: B2 Crash posted a link to an article about value of FF draft picks--here is a better one, for dynasty (Blood Feud) leagues IMO -- (link) - Flavorize Aug 21, 00:07 4
- Remember those numbers for Blood Feud are off since we are roughly starting drafting in Round 4-5ish, not Round 1 due to the keepers. -- nm - Strongbad Aug 21, 05:17
- 0 -- nm* - Flavorize Aug 21, 00:17
- 2 things: 1) value of a draft in a certain round & the value of some rookies.So, value of top 3 pick would be 42 points, but value of Barkley is 69 pt -- nm - Flavorize Aug 21, 00:13 1
  - To get a top 3 pick, you'd have to trade a Rodgers, Gronk, or Cook. To get Barkley w/#1 pick, or post draft, for would be Rodgers and a low 1st rounder -- (edited) - Flavorize Aug 21, 00:18
